Gallant: Hamas, Hezbollah 'no longer effective tool' for Iran

Israeli Defence Minister Yoav Gallant said Hamas and Hezbollah are not functioning effectively as military groups, adding that they are "no longer an effective tool" to be used by Iran.

"Over the past year, the security establishment led by the Israel Defense Forces turned the tide of the war and had unprecedented achievements in all arenas of fighting," he said during a memorial ceremony in Jerusalem.
